Sanchez is nowhere near ready for the NFL. His decision-making is his biggest flaw- he tries to force things where they shouldn't go. The Skins need to stay away from him. His family, his teammates and his coach all told him to stay (not just for selfish reasons). Pete Carroll made a poignant statement:

“Mark’s chance to increase his value and become the top player in college football next year would have been worth $10-$20 million or more — likely more,” Carroll said. “One more year of running a team is almost priceless, so he lost the chance to fully prepare himself and become the very best he could be before going to the NFL. That’s why there’s a 62 percent failure rate for underclassmen quarterbacks.”

The only player Pete's been wrong on (in terms of advising an underclassmen to stay) has been Lofa Tatupu...
